It should be able to run as a Junior Fueler in Nostalgia Racing, I would think??? Not sure, guess I'd have to reserarch it a bit...
I do know the car is moly, certified (don't remember what to, wish Richard was around!!!!!!!!)
I'd be getting it less engine and trans, have to be a Windsor in it for me, ya know!!!!!Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Well, I guess I wasn't really expecting anyone to try to talk me out of it, Ken!!!!!
Never have raced a front engine car, made a few passes in them and really enjoyed it...Other then one pass out at Thunder Valley when I tossed out the right valve cover gasket!!!! But in it's own sick and twisted way, that was kewl too!!!!!
Way too old to get a ride in Top Alcohol, too broke to run a rear engined BBF injected car like my old one, but man, this thing looks like it would provide all the fun a guy could ever want to have.....!!!!!!!
What the heck kind of time does a guy have to put down to be competitive in the nostalgia events in a car like this???? Last Nostalgia event I was at was in the mid 80's, would imagine times have come down a bunch since then....Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Dave, my Ex-GF said to me one time, "Honey, how many cars do you NEED?" I told her it wasn't a matter of how many I needed, it was how many I WANTED.
Yes, you should get that car. It would be a blast to drive and every time you fire that baby up and stage you will feel like Garlits for about 9 or 10 seconds. DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT, DO IT.
Even a mild little Ford in there will put you in times you would have to spend big bucks on to achieve with a heavier, different style drag car. Plus it looks like it is really put together well.
You really didn't think a bunch of gearheads like us would tell you to pass on this deal, did you, and you KNOW Ken is a bad influence!

I can see you here Dave:
